Simple Circuit
• Start with a simple electric circuit, with a 6.0 V battery
source and a single 10 W resistor
The 6.0 V battery has 2 terminals:
+3.0 V and -3.0 V.
The voltage (potential difference)
between the two terminals is 6.0 V.

• Let us look at this circuit again – in terms of the potential
differences across the source and the resistors
The voltage across

The sum of the potential differences across the resistors equals the potential
difference across the source. This occurs due to the distribution of surface charge.
